I get what you're saying. Nostr has a great culture imho. I was thinking today, "nostr turns social media from a treadmill into an elevator".
What people build on it, is completely permissionless, so it's really up to whoever wants to make something, they can use it, and it might get popular.
I completely understand what you say about culture drift, as most smart contracts systems are push and scammy. It's not a culture that would be good to import. Main problem being people create tokens and try and sell them with marketing and hype.
I see them more as a way to create more robust digital systems where the history is important, and the conditions of some logic is important, as a way for different systems to work together and have a tie-breaker if two things happen at once. Could be good for games or all sorts of things.
Re coin culture. There's synergy between bitcoiners and nostr because both dreamed of a world where you were free to interact without middlemen. Eventually there will be more communities that cross polinate like the zebedee gaming comunity and areas from other networks interacting.
NIP-79 is interesting, thanks for pointing it out, I'll look into it more.
